EN: coil; twist; act of coiling
Like how a snake wraps around its prey, or how your earphones get impossibly tangled in your pocket. It can also be 'hugot' for a clingy ex: 'Grabe ang **pulupot** niya sa'yo, parang ahas.'
This is the root word. It can be used as a noun (the coil itself) or as a root for verbs like `pumulupot` (to coil) and `puluputan` (to coil around something).
